Beer, Clamato, spicy v8, and a metric fuck ton of tajin. Cheladas are my favorite beer

I never made it, I usually order it with negro modelo if they’ve got it

I know the premade can modelo versions are frowned upon but man they are like crack to me. I really need to try to make my own, I’ve only had one made for me by my friends family.
They sale them in bottles w room to add a beer out of food trucks here in Texas. Sometimes I put topo chico and tequila in mine =)

A good mexican beer, all teh Tabasco sauce, heavy splash of fresh lime juice and a glass with a crust of salt and chili powder.

One of the best! Chamoy rim!

Beer: Tecate
Finishes: Tajin rim, Celery Salt

Instead of buying clamato my SO bought spicy V8 and clam juice to add in. I think because of the preservatives in clamato. It was pretty good though, sometimes I’ll mix V8 with some zing zang or other bloody Mary mixes. The smokey black yucateco hot sauce is another fav to add.

Bonus points if you put an extra bottle of beer upside down in it so it refills itself. Next level genius there.

Yes dear God. I had one the first time in Mexico City a few years ago and now I hunt for them at every Mexican restaurant I go to

🙋🏻♀️I’ve never made one but there’s a local spot that makes my favorite: BK Tacos in Tucson, AZ.

A tall boy Modelo, with tamarind rim dip, lots and lots of tajin, some mango chamoy, lime, some Texas Pete and a dill pickle.
Idk why I forgot I could ask anything on Reddit. I was about to ask my boss who is across the country but it was gonna be weird
So in NC they always have a Tajin rim but two places in San Antonio they had Chamoy rings. Is that a TX thing? Was it weird two places had it?
Plus do lots of people drink micheladas? I get them whenever I can but I’m a white boy and everyone Hispanic I know well enough to ask are all from the DR so try to avoid talking about Mexico. And on that note do only Mexicans drink them?

I have only found it once, but I got a cup with the mix both in the cup and on the rim and it was really good but I would hate to keep buying the styrofoam cups it was sold in. I should just make some.
Also obviously unpopular but I like the fruity Modelo ones. The watermelon one is crazy good even if it’s not a real michelada.

I love Micheladas so much!
I’m going to say something that will probably get me downvoted into infinity, but… try making a homemade Michelada with an IPA. That shit is GOOD.

Great morning-after beers.

My absolute favorite!

Unfortunately, I can’t stand Clamato, which most recipes seem to use. But when I can find one that just uses straight tomato juice, it’s great.
I like the simpler lime-based “chelada” style as well (though the two names are sometimes used interchangeably)
First time I had one of these, I was in Mexico on vacation at a swim up bar. They had a menu, and I had never heard tell of them before. My first thought was that it sounded like a vile combination, so I HAD to try it. Glad I did – best thing – EVER.

Fuck, yes. I’ve never seen them in a glass so tiny though. All the taco spots around me serve them in [an oversized stein like this](https://www.saveur.com/uploads/2019/03/18/64Q4JXTS6T6NHX62ACSLHNXNUY.jpg?auto=webp).
I haven’t tried it but I need it
